General Motors Recalls Vehicles For Headlights That Don’t Light

GM’s 79th recall centers around headlights that can stop working on certain vehicles.

In the 79th recall by the Automaker this year, GM has issued a recall for 316,357 SUVs and Sedans for headlights that stop working. The company issued the recall on Monday, December 1, 2014 saying that low-beam headlights can stop working on affected vehicles. The vehicles that have been identified as being part of the recall are the model years 2006-2009 Buick LaCrosse sedans; 2006-2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy and Buick Rainier SUVs; and 2006-2008 Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender SUVs.

This recall brings the number of cars recalled by the company to over 30.4 million worldwide and 26.85 million vehicles in the United States. Of the 317,357 vehicles in the latest recall, 273,182 are registered in the United States, with most of the rest in Canada and Mexico, GM said.

“If the headlamp driver module is not operating correctly, the low-beam headlamps and daytime running lamps could intermittently or permanently fail to illuminate. This condition does not affect the high-beam headlamps, marker lamps, turn signals, or fog lamps,” GM said in an emailed statement. GM said it has informed the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration of the recall.

Anyone seeking information on any of the recalls by General Motors can track down information by visiting the company’s online recall center at recalls.gm.com. Results on the website are currently updated to December 2, 2014, but the information provided on the website currently is for recalls announced on or after August 20, 1999. The information is available for vehicles in which repairs have not been completed.

If you still have questions after visiting GM’s online recall center, GM advises the consumer to contact the preferred Certified Service Dealer or authorized Saab service center and discuss your concerns with a member of the management team.
